Sean Winterbottom does not like politics. But like all people who do not like politics, once he starts talking about it, he has a lot to say. “Last general election I voted Conservative, but I don’t know for this one. They all just spin you whatever they want to spin you,” he said, leaning over the counter in the plumber’s merchant on the high street in Glossop where he works.

“I know it’s never going to happen but the parties should work together, contribute in areas that they’re good at and just work for the benefit of the country. There’s too much mudslinging and point-scoring, and they’re all as bad as each other. I don’t like drama.”
